2011 MLB Regular Season Gameday Thread

Wow, Brantley just dropped the ball and made a horrible throw with bases loaded.
6-1 Tigers.

 

[elcheato]

I guess that just adds onto reasons why I'm starting to dislike Brantley.

 

[RipCity32]

Don't be too mad, I'm sure Porcello loses tomorrow.

 

[elcheato]

It's a lost cause anyway since the Indians can't hit.

 

[RipCity32]

Everyone seems to hit Porcello lately lol.

Never know with Porcello, but he's hasn't done well his last 2-3 starts, that's for sure.

 

[RipCity32]

Victor has to be the best FA pick-up of any team this season.
We'd be absolutely fucked without Victor lol.

 

[snipezo]

Coco Crisp is the number 3 hitter for the A's. Man they got a messed up lineup lol.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

10-1.. I like the looks of this game.. A series sweep should would be nice tomorrow but it will be tough.

 

[RipCity32]

I hope we get the sweep. 4.5 games sounds a LOT better than 2.5.

That makes sense. 3 games sounds a LOT better than 2.5. Any lead sounds good in my ears.

Reds blow another one! :suicide:

What has happened to them? They've completely fallen apart this year after a nice run last year. Everyone was saying how great Dusty Baker was last year and now that they are having an off year I hear everyone wanting him canned. That sucks they've fallen apart though.

 

[Lake Louise]

Nice job by the Tigers. Now let's see if we can close it out. I'll be happy with either outcome.

 

[RipCity32]

I will not be happy with a loss haha.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

I will not be happy with a loss haha.

Well, the way he looks at it.. It's a series win either way but I can tell you right now, he'd definitely prefer a win. lol

 

[elcheato]

Doesn't really matter, Indians are done unless the offense gets off life support. But I suppose a 4 game series at home against the Mariners should help, but who knows.

Dusty sucks. I didn't want him last year. He plays an awful style of baseball, and his whole "I play matchups, not whos hot" stuff is shit imo. I remember Bruce hitting 3 home runs in 2 days back in June, but benched him the next day because a lefty was pitching. Forreal? The Reds are in dire need of a SS(which could be Cozart, but of course he was injured) and a leadoff hitter(Drew Stubbs is NOT a leadoff hitter) Brandon Phillips has been great in the leadoff role so far, so they need to keep him there next year. If next year rolls around and the Reds aren't contending, I can see Votto being traded tbh.

I heard about that Votto for Bautista possible trade. Is that what you are talking about?

 

[snipezo]

There's no way AA would do that lol. I love Votto and all but Joey Bats is a lot more valuable than him.

 

[RipCity32]

Well Votto ain't that much worse production wise, and is 3 years younger.
